Our first ultrasound

Our appointment today was amazing. We were in and out in less than 45 minutes. The ultrasound tech was great! We saw so many different views of the baby.The images we have are in 3D and they are so cool. It was amazing to be able to see the spine clearly, and little toes, unfortunately we don't have any pictures of that. She turned the sound on and we could hear the baby's heartbeat- 176 beats per minute!!!! Then we met with the doctor- Dr. Campbell. He was awesome! We liked him as soon as he walked in. Very pleasant and nice- much different from the last doctor we saw. He said that he loved that the baby was so healthy! He said he was in no way concerned for the baby!! The baby is still small, 4.4 cm, which is less than 2 inches. The due date has not changed, and is still May 15th. Our next appointment is set up for November 24th to get information about birthing classes, etc. It will be a full workup. After that, we will have a "full body" ultrasound of the baby, where they'll look at all organs and limbs to check their status. In case any one has not heard, we are not going to find out if it's a boy or a girl- we want to be surprised. Thanks so much for praying for us and and thinking about us. Enjoy the attached photos of the little munchkin!!! Notice the size of the head- it is definitely a Drake :)



Love to you all :)
